What do you want for $3.00 bucks?
I had nothing to lose were my thoughts on this cruddy little piece!
Found it at the GOODWILL, was calling my name...take me pleazzzzzzzzzz

And cruddy it was!
Starting to come to life, but I can't stop there....now what color combo to use?
Yes these three go nicely together....and what do I see a knife too?
As you can see I really funked it up! and it matches the piece in the corner....
This was easy...
After my initial color was dry, all I did to the top was take some stencil tape and make an X...

I then panited two triangles the red, and two triangles the tangerine.
Once that was dry, I took my copper color with a paper towel and rubbed it all over to give the aged look.
The knife was used to scrape the piece...I just went crazy scraping the edges and top...I wanted it to look beat up...I would say it does!

Hi, coming over from Feathered Nest..
LOVE this table. You saw some real potential in this piece and it sure worked out. Nice job!
lynn
Perfect, love the coffee beans too, what a perfect idea for that table to be used as and of course the paint colors are my favorite
That looks beautiful! Nice work on a *great* find!
You can work magic baby! That looks great, really love the knife marks adds so much vintage. Have a great weekend, Vicky
lovely transformation! Scarlett x
Love, love, love it....very creative and the colors go so well together!
Oooh, Debbie, it's awesome!! I'm about to start doing furniture so I've got to keep stuff like this in mind.
Oh my gosh, I love this table! It turned out AWESOME!! XOXO ~Liz
Love this transformation the top is just perfect!
So fun, I love it!
Score! The table looks darling! You're a wonder with paint! The whole vignette looks great, but I have to tell you that light is the enemy of coffee beans. You need to get them out of the glass jar and put them in an opaque canister. Of course if they're purely decorative beans, then feel free to ignore me.
Debbie, that is cute. I love the scraped parts. Three dollars was a super deal for a nice piece once you glammed it up.
What a great job...I can draw some inspiration from you when I transform my craigslist find! Thank you for stopping by my blog and I intend to check out your newbie party. From one Jersey girl to another ~ nice to meet you!
wow we does that little ugly duckling look like a swan now i love the detail on top great job:)
WOW Deb you made that little $3 table into a great piece of furniture,and you found the perfect spot for it!! Martina
Great color choices on that! I would have grabbed that piece in a heartbeat, especially at that cost! Wow! This is a wonderful transformation!
How cute, Debbie Dear! I love how your little table turned out! You are truly the most creative one!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
I was sort of thinking eh when I first saw the table... BUT, I LOVE the top of it. Perfect look.
DI
Nice job! I commented on it on the wrong post. Coffee not kicking in this morning. :D
We used to have a table like that and it held our telephone and telephone books. That was around 1950. It is so cute.
Pretty transformation Debb... love the table combo

Now that is quite the transformation! It's not a crappy $3.00 piece of furniture now. You did a great job.
I love it, looks like it had once been a telephone stand. Love how you painted it, I'll have to try the tape thing sometime, really looks good Deb!
Rondell
First, your $3.00 find is AWESOME! You do fabulous work!!
Second, have I told you how awesome you are???? Your party and kindness have brought my blog from ????? to fabulous!! I can never thank you enough!
Love ya!!
Daniella
So for the price of a cup of coffee you made something look like a million bucks! :-) I absolutely love that little table and the details you put into it are just perfect. Thank you so much for linking it up to Inspiration Friday this week Debbie!
Vanessa
Debbie, what a cute little table you ended up with!
love those colors, and the way you distressed the top. perfect spot for it, in your kitchen! glad you spent those 3 bucks!
Don't you love that we take a beat up old piece-paint it so it looks new again and then beat it up again? Is that amusing to anyone besides me? lol Nice job there, beater girl! At least you didn't use your whips this time!;>) xxoo Diana
I love what you did with this piece. It turned out great!
I just love how you have changed it up all week. I never know what to expect from a visit. You can create a miracle out so something tossed aside by another. Sweet Creative Weekend Wishes,
Kate
You always have the best luck at Goodwill. Send some of that luck my way please!
What a sassy and CUTE table. I love the color choices you picked!!! I hope you have a great weekend!!
Totally adorable! LOVE the colors and the X and all of the dinging you did to it. Wish I could see inside your mind for just a few minutes. :-)

Turned out very cute Debbie. Paint does wonders...
Debbie, I admire you and your creative energy. Great job! ~ sarah
Hi Debbie,
Love what you did with this little table; so cute.Good luck with the party tonight too. Peggy
What a great table and I love the green paint. Really fun how you finished the top.
I noticed your cheese crock is from Buffalo, NY and since that's where I live, I felt it was a sign that I should follow you!! Nice blog, I look forward to more!!
I love the colors you used on the table. They look great together. I have a bottle of that bear bread on my counter. My son got it as a gift and left it behind!
You have some great things in that breakfast nook Debbie. Love that big jar filled with coffee beans.
-Rene
Wow! It looks awesome, Debbie! You always do the best paint projects.
Fantastic re-do Debbie~ I love the colors and pattern- and it looks perfect where you placed it! Thanks for sharing at Feathered Nest Friday! :)
I am so in love with your re-creation of this $3 table! The colors are fun and happy- reflecting your personality, of course! :-)
Sue
